For people who buy US mint coins annually do you order directly from the mint or from a coin store. Which one do you do the most.
I'll buy directly from the mint in a year or two coz right now I don't have either credit card or Paypal. I buy US mint stuff from ebay only.
Though I have ceased this yearly ritual for multifarious purposes, I used to pilfer product directly from the big clad machine. ...I think that made sense...
I subscribe to the US Mint for products. Why not go direct to the source? Only go to dealers for stuff that has been already released. Having good luck with a local coin dealer.
let me do the math! Mint = cost, Coin shop = cost+profit+overhead+profit again Hmmmmmm Coin collecting can be so confusing!
Currently subscribe to the mint but seriously thinking about canceling as Modern Mint products are not what I collect......
